The Story of Adam (The First Man) _ part 1

By_
Allah  (God) said to the angels: “‘Verily, I am going to place mankind generations after generations on earth.’  They said: ‘Will You place therein those who will make mischief therein and shed blood, while we glorify You with praises and thanks and sanctify You.’  Allah (God) said: ‘I know that which you do not know.’” (Quran 2:30) So begins the story of Adam, the first man, the first human being.  God created Adam from a handful of soil containing portions from all its varieties on Earth.  Angels were sent to earth to collect the soil that was to become Adam.  It was red, white, brown, and black; it was soft and malleable, hard and gritty; it came from the mountains and the valleys; from infertile deserts and lush fertile plains and all the natural varieties in between.  The descendants of Adam were destined to be as diverse as the handful of soil from which their ancestor was created; all have different appearances, attributes and qualities.

বিদ‘আতের সংজ্ঞা  আল্লাহর নিকট ইসলামই হচ্ছে একমাত্র মনোনীত দীন। আল-কুরআনে তিনি বলেন, ﴿وَمَن يَبۡتَغِ غَيۡرَ ٱلۡإِسۡلَٰمِ دِينٗا فَلَن يُقۡبَلَ مِنۡهُ﴾ [ال عمران: ٨٥] ‘‘যে ব্যক্তি ইসলাম ছাড়া অন্য কোনো দীন অনুসন্ধান করে, তা কখনোই তার কাছ থেকে গ্রহণ করা হবে না’’। [সূরা আলে ইমরান, আয়াত: ৮৫] এ দীনকে পরিপূর্ণ করার ঘোষণাও আল্লাহ আল-কুরআনে দিয়েছেন, ﴿ٱلۡيَوۡمَ أَكۡمَلۡتُ لَكُمۡ دِينَكُمۡ وَأَتۡمَمۡتُ عَلَيۡكُمۡ نِعۡمَتِي وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ ٱلۡإِسۡلَٰمَ دِينٗا﴾ [المائ‍دة: ٣] ‘‘আজ আমি তোমাদের জন্য তোমাদের দীনকে পরিপূর্ণ করে দিলাম এবং ইসলামকে তোমাদের জন্য দীন হিসেবে মনোনীত করলাম।’’ [সূরা আল-মায়েদা, আয়াত: ৩] এ ঘোষণার পর আল-কুরআন ও সুন্নাহ’র বাইরে দীনের মধ্যে নতুন কোনো বিষয় সংযোজিত হওয়ার পথ চিরতরে রুদ্ধ হয়ে গেল এবং বিদ‘আত তথা নতুন যে কোনো বিষয় দীনী আমল ও আকীদা হিসেবে দীনের অন্তর্ভুক্ত হওয়াও হারাম হয়ে গেল। এ আলোচনায় বিদ‘আতের সংক্ষিপ্ত পরিচয় তুলে ধরার পাশাপাশি কীভাবে আমাদের সমাজে প্রচলিত বিদ‘আতগুলোকে সনাক্ত করা যায় সে সম্পর্কিত মূলনীতি তুলে ধরা হবে। বিদ‘আতের সংজ্ঞা: বিদ‘আত শব্দের আভিধানিক অর্থ হলো: ا...

اللّٰہُ لَاۤ اِلٰہَ اِلَّا ہُوَ ۙ الۡحَیُّ الۡقَیُّوۡمُ ؕ﴿۲﴾  অনুবাদঃ  আল্লাহ, তিনি ছাড়া কোন ইলাহ নেই, তিনি চিরঞ্জীব, চিরপ্রতিষ্ঠিত ধারক। -(আল-বায়ান) আল্লাহ, তিনি ছাড়া সত্যিকারের কোন ইলাহ নেই, তিনি চিরঞ্জীব সকলের রক্ষণাবেক্ষণকারী।  -(তাইসিরুল) আল্লাহ ছাড়া কোনই ইলাহ (উপাস্য) নেই, তিনি চিরঞ্জীব ও নিত্য বিরাজমান। -(মুজিবুর রহমান) তাফসীরে আহসানুল-বায়ান (২) আল্লাহ ব্যতীত অন্য কোন (সত্য) উপাস্য নেই, তিনি চিরঞ্জীব ও সব কিছুর ধারক। [1] [1] حَيٌّ এবং قَيُّومٌ মহান আল্লাহর বিশেষ গুণ। ‘হায়্যুন’এর অর্থ তিনি চিরঞ্জীব, তাঁর মৃত্যু ও ধ্বংস নেই। ‘ক্বায়্যুম’এর অর্থ, তিনি নিখিল বিশ্বের ধারক, সংরক্ষণকারী এবং পর্যবেক্ষক। বিশ্বের সব কিছুই তাঁর মুখাপেক্ষী, তিনি কারো মুখাপেক্ষী নন। খ্রিষ্টানরা ঈসা (আঃ)-কে আল্লাহ অথবা তাঁর পুত্র কিংবা তিনের এক মনে করত। সুতরাং তাদেরকে বলা হচ্ছে যে, ঈসা (আঃ)ও যখন আল্লাহর সৃষ্টি, তিনি মায়ের পেট থেকে জন্ম নিয়েছেন এবং তাঁর জন্মকালও পৃথিবী সৃষ্টির বহুকাল পর। তাহলে তিনি আল্লাহ অথবা তাঁর পুত্র কিভাবে হতে পারেন? যদি তোমাদের বিশ্বাস সঠিক হত, তাহলে সে সৃষ্টি হয়...
